Is it safe to treat humans for flea bites with garlic and brewers yeast?
My daughter is allergic to flea bites, but we have cats that have fleas. We have tried treating the cats with a number of different products, both holistic and chemical, but we continue to have problems, especially during the summer. Someone suggested to add garlic and brewers yeast to the cat food. I know it sounds crazy, but would it be safe to put the same ingredients in my daughter’s food? Or as long as I’m being crazy, could I give her the garlic and yeast pills that are sold through pet supply companies for “natural” remedies?
If you have tried treating the problem with holistic and chemical medications, it sounds like you might have a manifestation.
You need spray your yard, give the cats regular baths and vacuum/clean the whole house.
Don’t give your daughter brewers yeast…too much yeast can cause issues.
The only reason garlic is said to be a flea repellent is because they don’t like the odor.Odorless garlic is not effective (and I have tried this method with myself)
Also, don’t give your child pills that are not recommended for humans.Pet supplements have a different safety standard than human supplements.Purchase a human supplement.Although I am against putting pesticides on your pets, Advantage does work.I HAVE to use advantage because my pets come with me to work and fleas are not preventable there..kinda sucks because I don’t like that crap.
